This is Lily's favorite 'pose'. Eyes closed.Yes, I have more to blog about than sewing, but it will have to wait. I have inundated myself with projects and am really loving it. I have been choosing projects that require a certain skill that i want to learn. The kimono was my 'make-my-own-bias-tape" project. This pretty, pleated dress is my own design. I wanted to learn how to make pleats. It turned out to be much easier than I had imagined. I think it turned out really cute. Lily has plenty of dresses and this one will probably be too small in about 2 weeks so I am offering it up to anyone who wants it. This dress ties on both shoulders and in the back. It fits Lily like a glove so I think it is probably a 12-18 month size. Lily is pretty thin and has no behind whatsoever.Let me know what you think, and if you want it! You have until August 26 to enter!

Addi would never fit it but I'd love to copy it but if someone with a little girl wants it you should give it to them. You are so creative and motivated making up your own designs! I think I'm cool if I add a ruffle.

I love this little dress!-just stumbled across your blog and will have to check back to see more of your creations!! Thanks!BTW-I have a giveaway every week from different Etsy shops if you are interested. This week it is a handmade scarf.

I don't know if it's too late, but if I can still sign up, put my name in! The stuff you make is so cute! I don't want to do the math in my head (hey, I'm on vacation!), so I don't even know if it will fit her next summer...actually, I don't know if it will...but it's cute. Maybe Claire will be tall and so it will fit. Who knows?
